Add Page Numbers to PDF
Free online tool to add page numbers to a PDF and save the result. Open one PDF, see a live preview of your own first page, then place the number with a visual 3x3 position picker - any corner, the top or bottom centre - and watch it move instantly. Choose the format (1, Page 1, 1 of 10, 1 / 10, Page 1 of 10 or your own template with {n} and {N}), the number style (1 2 3, i ii iii, I II III, a b c or A B C), the start number, font size, colour and margin. Number every page, skip the cover, or number only a page range such as 2-10. Numbers are stamped upright even on rotated or scanned pages. Everything runs in your browser and your file is never uploaded, so contracts, theses and records stay 100% private. No sign-up, no watermark and no file-size limits beyond your own device memory. Works on desktop and mobile.

Add Page Numbers to PDF
The Add Page Numbers to PDF tool stamps clean, professional page numbers onto any PDF — right inside your browser. Open a document, see a live preview of your own first page, then tap a spot on the 3×3 grid to place the number in any corner, at the top centre or the bottom centre. Choose the format, number style, start value, size, colour and margin, decide which pages to number, and download the finished file. Because everything happens locally on your device, your file is never uploaded to any server, which makes it safe for contracts, theses, court bundles, invoices and any other confidential document.
How to Add Page Numbers to a PDF
- Open your PDF. Drag your file onto the drop area or click Choose a PDF file. It is read in your browser and stays on your device.
- Place the number. Tap any cell on the 3×3 grid over the live preview to move the number badge to that corner, the top centre or the bottom centre.
- Choose the format. Pick a preset such as Page 1 of N or write your own template with {n} and {N}, then set the number style, start value, size, colour and margin.
- Pick which pages. Number every page, skip the cover page, or enter a range like 2-10 so only those pages are numbered.
- Add numbers and download. Click Add Numbers & Download PDF. The numbers are drawn permanently into the file and the numbered PDF is saved to your device.
Page Number Formats
Use a ready-made preset or build your own template with two placeholders: {n} is the current page's number and {N} is the total number of numbered pages.
| Template | Number style | Result on page 3 of 10 |
|---|---|---|
{n} | 1, 2, 3 | 3 |
Page {n} | 1, 2, 3 | Page 3 |
{n} of {N} | 1, 2, 3 | 3 of 10 |
Page {n} of {N} | 1, 2, 3 | Page 3 of 10 |
- {n} - | i, ii, iii | - iii - |
{n} | A, B, C | C |
What Makes This Page Number Tool Different
No upload, no cloud processing, no account. The numbering runs in JavaScript on your own device, so confidential files never leave your computer or phone.
A live preview of your real first page shows exactly where the number lands and how it looks, so there is no guesswork and no download-and-check.
Scanned sideways or landscape pages are handled correctly — the number is stamped upright in the right corner, never printed sideways or off the edge.
Roman numerals for a preface, letters for appendices, a custom start value, page ranges and your own {n}/{N} template — the numbering fits real documents.
Common Uses
Number the pages of a thesis or dissertation before binding, add Page X of Y footers to a contract or legal bundle, paginate a scanned document, number a booklet or report for printing, restart numbering after a cover page, or use Roman numerals for a table of contents and Arabic numbers for the body.
Quality & Compatibility
The tool draws small text onto each chosen page using the standard Helvetica font — the existing content is never re-rendered or recompressed, so text stays selectable and searchable and images keep their original resolution. The numbers are stored permanently in the PDF, so they appear in every PDF reader, browser and mobile device, not just while you preview them here.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Add Page Numbers to PDF tool free and private?
Yes. It is completely free and runs entirely in your web browser. Your PDF is never uploaded to any server, so it stays private on your own device, and the numbered file has no watermark and needs no sign-up.
Can I choose where the page number appears?
Yes. Tap any cell on the 3×3 grid over the live preview to place the number in a corner, at the top centre or at the bottom centre. You can also change the margin so it sits exactly where you want, and the preview shows the position before you save.
What page number formats are supported?
You can use plain numbers, Page 1, 1 of 10, 1 / 10, Page 1 of 10, or write your own template with the placeholders {n} for the current page and {N} for the total. Numbers can be shown as 1 2 3, Roman i ii iii or I II III, or letters a b c or A B C.
Can I start numbering from a specific page or number?
Yes. Choose which pages to number — for example skip the cover so numbering starts on page 2, or number only pages 2 to 10 — and set the start number so the first numbered page shows any value you like, such as 1 or 5.
Will the numbers be placed correctly on rotated or scanned pages?
Yes. The tool reads each page's rotation and stamps the number upright in the visually correct corner, even on pages that were scanned sideways or set to landscape, so the number is never printed sideways or off the edge.
Does adding page numbers reduce the quality of my PDF?
No. The tool only draws small text onto each page; the existing content is never re-rendered or recompressed, so text stays selectable and searchable and images keep their original resolution.
Can it number a password-protected PDF?
An encrypted or password-protected PDF cannot be numbered directly, and the tool will tell you when a file is protected. Remove the protection first — for example with your PDF reader's Print to PDF or Save a copy option — then open the unlocked file.
